The Perfect GIFT

words and music by Nadia Ackerman and John Deley

I put myself in your shoes
to think of something you might like! so I took your train downtown
to chelsea just to look around

to find that special thing
something you would never choose

you say the best gifts are free

but in this case I disagree

I could play it safe and sweet
or I could knock you off your feet
But I’m a little nervous
I feel so unprepared
to let you know how much I really care!

I know it’s not on your list
I think I found the perfect gift
one that takes you by surprise
and lights excitement in your eyes


I almost played it safe and sweet
but want to knock you off your feet! and now I’m not so nervous
now I feel prepared
to let you know how much I really care


Up the stairs to the second floor

standing now outside your door
in my heart there’s just one wish
to give you the perfect gift
